Home of entertainment. In recent years, even stadiums have undergone a significant transformation compared to less than ten years ago. Today, substantial investments are being made to develop architectural and design projects that become real landmarks for an entire city, not only in the sports sector but also for other activities. Certain types of stadiums become true community hubs with diverse interests and are often experienced as gathering places where people spend entire days during scheduled events. An outstanding example of this trend is represented by the Allegiant Stadium of the Las Vegas Raiders in Nevada, designed by Manica Architecture to evoke the sleek power of sports cars. With a retractable field and a capacity to accommodate up to 62,000 people, it offers a unique spectacle. The black glass that covers it was designed to protect the building from sunlight, giving it not only an aesthetically appealing appearance but also functionality that ensures better management of sunlight and maintains a comfortable environment inside the stadium. 🙌 What’s your take? # 271 ARCHITECTURE, United States 👉 More contents on our website, the link to the featured news is in the first comment below. 🎯 If you want to learn more about our transformative approach to generating growth (yes, what we call innovation marketing!), feel free to write me privately.

The architectural beauty of sports stadiums through three Populous projects Major sports projects, such as stadiums, can – and should – be more than just beautiful and functional architectural works. Their power to attract numerous people serves as a driving force for urban regeneration and a socio-economic system around them. Examples of this are these three stadiums designed by Populous, a firm specializing in sports architecture.

How do we breath new life into those large, underutilized and outdated American Malls? MKSK is proud to partner with Isaac Bamgbose and property owner Sojos Capital to develop a transformative concept for Lafayette Square Mall that's now moving forward with its implementation. "The revised project plan—which is now named The Square—includes tearing down much of the existing mall structure and replacing it with roadways, apartment buildings, a sports facility and other buildings that create more of a village concept." We can't wait to see The Square reborn! Check out the IBJ Article here: https://lnkd.in/g7k-FA_M Aaron Kowalski Andrew Knight, RLA Sean Hare, AICP Eric Lucas Elika Ghavvas

Athletics is an important part of the student experience at most higher ed institutions, whether as a student-athlete or fan. For those of your evaluating stadium renovations/construction, what value is being placed on the luxury quotient expected by both your fans and athletes? Construction Dive and Michael Hessert discuss how stadium design is changing: https://lnkd.in/enmcUi2z

Fear not, glass industry football enthusiasts, for the gridiron host venue of Sunday’s Super Bowl LVIII (nope, not calling it the ‘big game’) hath been meticulously tested, inspected and corrected by industry darlings Keith Daubmann, Kendal Rowe and yours truly. “𝑾𝒆𝒍𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒉 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒓, 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒐𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒔’ 𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒅𝒊𝒆.” – Mark Davis. 🏈 Designed by MANICA Architecture, with killer collaboration from Arup, HNTB and project manager CAA ICON, and Mortenson & McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. Joint Venture (MMcJV), this unique stadium was brought to life to satisfy ANYONE that likes football, concerts, #architecture and good times in general… not to mention the defibrillator shock to the local economy and job market. Allegiant Stadium is an iconic addition to the Las Vegas strip. With 65,000 seats that can be expanded by 7,000 additional seats during major events, it is the largest entertainment venue in Las Vegas. The stadium generates $62 million of economic benefits annually while creating 6,000 permanent jobs in the city. It features four 50-ft-wide glass-and-steel lanai doors that provide sexy views of the #Vegas strip and is also one of only two stadiums with a bananas retractable natural grass playing field (weighing almost 20 million pounds). Yeah, it’s wild. Penny for your thoughts, stadia-design guru Christopher Lamberth? Oh, and there’s a touch of #glass, sprinkled in, too (about a half a million square feet of dark-tinted glass). The goth-scheme façade is designed to be reflective in daylight, but passersby will be able to peek into the stadium at night when the interior lights are on. The heck with Mahomes and Purdy, Here are the players’ jerseys I want (the folks that made it happen): Enclos, AGC INTERPANE, PRL Glass and Aluminum Systems, Trulite Glass & Aluminum Solutions, Giroux Glass, Inc., Walters & Wolf, GLASSWERKS LA, Pulp Studio, Inc, Sensitile, Glass Supply Inc, IUPAT Glaziers District Council 16. More fun with numbers: This monster includes 28,000 tons of structural steel, 75,000 square feet of video boards, and an overall #4 ranking on the "NFL Concession Index" for the price of a beer and a hot dog (important factors/metrics for game-goers). 🌭🍺💵 I don’t have a dog in this fight, but I’ll be rootin’ for KC to back my pal Sara Neiswanger’s Red Kingdom and will be recklessly online betting on post-game Kelce/Swift proposals, coach’s Gatorade shower color (Cool Blue for Casey Anderson), and likelihood of an Usher halftime wardrobe malfunction at 7 o’clock on the dot. Can't wait to see what Bill Sullivan is grilling on game day (no excuses Bill, it's mostly sunny with a high of 39° in MN). #GlassNerd National Glass Association (NGA) #SuperBowl #architecture #stadiumdesign

🏟️ It’s Official: Lang Park to Host Brisbane Games with Gabba and QE2 to get Rebuilds 🚨Queensland Premier Steven Miles has opted to rebuild Lang Park, the Gabba, and QE2 Stadium as part of the $7B Brisbane 2032 Olympics infrastructure. By embracing sustainable refurbishment over new builds, this initiative sets the stage for the first games to be built in line with the #ioc’s carbon-positive requirements 🥇 Brisbane 2032 Olympic Plan 1️⃣ Embracing Heritage: Rejecting the proposal for a new $3.4 billion stadium, the Premier focuses on retrofitting three existing venues. According to the Premier, this will save the state $1 Billion. 2️⃣ Sustainable Retrofitting: In line with Premier Miles’ commitment at COP28, these upgrades are envisioned to incorporate carbon-friendly construction materials, including materials like mass timber, green steel and recycled concrete. This move not only supports the environmental agenda but also leverages the aesthetic and structural benefits of eco architecture. 3️⃣ Global Architectural Vision: Fueling the momentum for innovation, a global architect alliance proposes a distinctive design ethos for stadium redevelopment. Envisioning a timber shell intertwined with greenery and sandstone, they are pushing for low-carbon and attractive stadium designs 🔄 What’s Next? The organising committed are going back to the drawing board and redesigning stadiums to be used in the games 💡 #questionforgeoup: How do you perceive the impact of Brisbane’s sustainable refurbishment plans on the global sports infrastructure landscape? Can this pioneering use of mass timber in stadiums inspire a new norm for future Olympic venues? 🔗 Explore more: https://lnkd.in/gNEXJYGq #brisbane #olympics #infrastructure #qldpol #construction #greenbuilding #retrofit #rebuilding #gabba #suncorpstadium #qe2 #engineering #auspol #newworldcity #bne #architectureanddesign #architecture #timberconstruction #timberengineering #climatepositive #climatechange #climateaction #masstimberconstruction #masstimber #paris2024 #brisbane2032 #ioc #woodcentral #woodcentralau1 #woodsolutions
